Objective:To analyze the effects of adenoidectomy, tonsillectomy and tonsillectomy combined with adenoidectomy on obstructive sleep apnea children by computational fluid dynamics numerical simulation. Methods:A case of typical tonsil with adenoid hypertrophy was selected. Mimics 21.0 software was used to establish the original preoperative model, adenoidectomy, tonsillectomy and virtual surgical models of tonsillectomy combined adenoidectomy, and the computational fluid dynamics model of the upper airway was established by ANSYS 2019 R1 software, and then the pressure and velocity of the internal flow field of the CFD model were numerically simulated. Seven planes perpendicular to the flow trace were selected as the observation planes, including the cross section of the sinusostoma complex, the anterior end of the adenoid body, the narrowest cross section of the nasopharyngeal cavity, the pharyngostoma tube, the narrowest cross section of the oropharyngeal cavity, the lower pole of the tonsil and the glottis section. The comparison indexes included pressure, flow velocity and flow distribution. Results:Compared with the original model before operation, after the adenoids were removed only, the pressure drop between the section of the ostiomeatal complex and the section of the eustachian tube decreased, the high velocity peak at the anterior end of the adenoids disappeared, and the flow trace through the middle nasal canal increased. When only bilateral tonsils were removed, the pressure drop between the eustachian tube and the glottis slowed down and the flow velocity between the eustachian tube and the glottis slowed down. Combined tonsillar-adenoidectomy resulted in the most uniform pressure distribution, the most gentle pressure change and flow rate in the upper airway, and the most ignificant increase in airflow trace through the middle nasal canal among the three operations. Conclusion:Adenoidectomy, tonsillectomy and combined tonsillar adenoidectomy can make the airflow velocity and pressure of upper respiratory tract uniform to different degrees, but there are obvious differences in the specific anatomical location and degree. The application of CFD can intuitively predict the improvement of upper airway flow field in OSA children by different surgical methods, which helps clinicians to make surgical decision.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the prevalence of norovirus causing sporadic acute gastroenteritis in China.Methods:Relevant articles on acute gastroenteritis caused by norovirus in China published between January 2010 and October 2023 were retrieved from Wanfang, CNKI and PubMed database. The articles met inclusion and exclusion criteria were enrolled in this study. Excel software and SPSS20.0 software were used for statistical analysis. The epidemiological features of sporadic cases of acute gastroenteritis caused by norovirus in China were summarized using descriptive statistical analysis.Results:A total of 500 articles were included in this study, involving 784 486 cases of acute gastroenteritis and 670 292 samples in 32 provinces and regions. Norovirus GⅡ was the predominant genogroup causing acute gastroenteritis in China in recent years, but there were significant differences in the distribution of genotypes and epidemic strains at different times. GⅡ.4 was the predominant genotype in each year, and GⅡ.4/2006b and GⅡ.4 /Sydney_2012 were the main epidemic strains. Norovirus-related diarrhea occurred throughout the year, especially between the months of October and December. The incidence of norovirus infection was high in children under five years old and varied in different regions.Conclusions:Norovirus GⅡ was the predominant genogroup causing norovirus-related sporadic acute gastroenteritis in China, but there was an obvious genetic evolutionary trend in the epidemic strains. Factors such as epidemic strains, season and geographical region should be considered when making strategies for the prevention and control of norovirus-related diarrhea and developing vaccines.

Compared with the model group , MEL could inhibit such effects (LC3b : P < 0. 05 , P < 0. 01 ; α ⁃SMA : P < 0. 01) . Transmission electron microscopy ( TEM) showed that compared with the control group , autopolysosome significantly increased in the model group (P < 0. 05) . Compared with model group , autopolysosome significantly decreased in MEL treatment group (P < 0. 01) . Conclusion The up⁃regulation of autophagy level can promote the proliferation of hepatic stellate cells and the inhibition of hepatic stellate cell proliferation by MEL may be related to the down⁃regulation of autophagy level .

LIN28 is an RNA binding protein with important roles in early embryo development, stem cell differentiation/reprogramming, tumorigenesis and metabolism. Previous studies have focused mainly on its role in the cytosol where it interacts with Let-7 microRNA precursors or mRNAs, and few have addressed LIN28's role within the nucleus. Here, we show that LIN28 displays dynamic temporal and spatial expression during murine embryo development. Maternal LIN28 expression drops upon exit from the 2-cell stage, and zygotic LIN28 protein is induced at the forming nucleolus during 4-cell to blastocyst stage development, to become dominantly expressed in the cytosol after implantation. In cultured pluripotent stem cells (PSCs), loss of LIN28 led to nucleolar stress and activation of a 2-cell/4-cell-like transcriptional program characterized by the expression of endogenous retrovirus genes. Mechanistically, LIN28 binds to small nucleolar RNAs and rRNA to maintain nucleolar integrity, and its loss leads to nucleolar phase separation defects, ribosomal stress and activation of P53 which in turn binds to and activates 2C transcription factor Dux. LIN28 also resides in a complex containing the nucleolar factor Nucleolin (NCL) and the transcriptional repressor TRIM28, and LIN28 loss leads to reduced occupancy of the NCL/TRIM28 complex on the Dux and rDNA loci, and thus de-repressed Dux and reduced rRNA expression. Lin28 knockout cells with nucleolar stress are more likely to assume a slowly cycling, translationally inert and anabolically inactive state, which is a part of previously unappreciated 2C-like transcriptional program. These findings elucidate novel roles for nucleolar LIN28 in PSCs, and a new mechanism linking 2C program and nucleolar functions in PSCs and early embryo development.

Objective To evaluate the rupture risk of carotid atherosclerotic plaque under cervical rotatory manipulation. Methods The fluid-structure interaction (FSI) model of carotid atherosclerotic plaque was established, and tensile deformation of the plaque and lumen under cervical rotatory manipulation was simulated.Mechanical parameters such as the maximum flow shear stress(FSS), the maximum wall shear stress (WSS), the maximum plaque wall stress (PWS), wall tensile stress (WTS) and wall pressure (WP) of the plaque and lumen were recorded. Results Under 16% carotid tensile deformation, the maximum WSS of the plaque was 40.54 Pa. The maximum PWS was 66.16 kPa, which was far smaller than the threshold of plaque rupture.The maximum WTS of fiber cap and the maximum strain were 156.75 kPa and 0.56, which were larger than the fracture strain range. The maximum WTS of the lumen was 1 040.30 kPa, which approached the threshold of medial membrane rupture and might cause vascular injury. Conclusions When the cervical spine rotates to the end range of motion, large carotid artery stretch may cause damage to epidermal tissues of the plaque, leading to abscission. Lesions, ulcers, bleeding and vascular damage may form inside the plaque, which will affect stability of the plaque. Cervical rotatory manipulation should be performed cautiously in patients with cervical diseases who also have carotid atherosclerotic plaques.The finite element assessment of plaques before manipulation may be an effective safety screening method.

Objective:To investigate the effects of docetaxel for postoperative chemotherapy of advanced gastric cancer.Methods:The propensity score matching and retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 311 patients with advanced gastric cancer who were admitted to Lanzhou University Second Hospital from January 2013 to December 2018 were collected. There were 224 males and 87 females, aged from 26 to 82 years, with a median age of 58 years. Of 311 patients, 204 cases undergoing chemotherapy with the FOLFOX regimen (oxaliplatin, calcium folinate, 5-fluorouracil) were allocated into the FOLFOX group, and 107 cases undergoing chemotherapy with the FLOT regimen (docetaxel, oxaliplatin, calcium folinate, 5-fluorouracil) were allocated into the FLOT group. Observation indicators: (1) the propensity score matching conditions and comparison of general data between the two groups of patients after matching; (2) follow-up; (3) analysis of survival factors; (4) subgroup analysis; (5) adverse reactions. Follow-up was performed using a combination of outpatient examination, hospitalization review and telephone interview to detect situations of patients chemotherapy, postoperative survival, tumor recurrence and metastasis up to February 2019. The propensity score matching was realized using the nearest neighbor method with 1: 1 ratio and caliper setting as 0.02. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the t test. Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability method. Rank data was analyzed using non parametric Rank sum test. The survival curve and rate were respectively drawn and calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method. The survival analysis was done using the Log-rank test. Univariate analysis and multivariate analysis were conducted using the COX regression model. Subgroup analysis was done using interaction test. Results:(1) The propensity score matching conditions and comparison of general data between the two groups of patients after matching: 198 of 311 patients had successful matching, including 99 in each group. Cases with tumor differentiated as poorly differentiation or well differentiation, cases with CA19-9 <27 U/mL or ≥27 U/mL, cases with CA125 <35 U/mL or ≥35 U/mL before propensity score matching were 109, 95, 156, 48, 186, 18 in the FOLFOX group, and 42, 65, 93, 14, 104, 3 in the FLOT group, respectively, showing significant differences in the above indicators between the two groups ( χ2=5.649, 4.798, 4.039, P<0.05). After propensity score matching, the above indicators were 44, 55, 85, 14, 96, 3 in the FOLFOX group, and 42, 57, 85, 14, 96, 3 in the FLOT group, respectively, showing no significant difference in the above indicators between the two groups ( χ2=0.082, 0.000, 0.000, P>0.05). (2) Follow-up: 198 patients of the two groups after matching were followed up for 2 to 69 months, with a median follow-up time of 38 months. During the follow-up, 92 cases survived without tumor, 2 cases underwent tumor recurrence or metastasis, and 104 cases died including 103 with tumor related death and 1 case with non-tumor related death. The courses of chemotherapy were 5.6±0.7 and 5.4±0.8 for the FOLFOX group and FLOT group, respectively, showing no significant difference between the two groups ( t=1.651, P>0.05). The 1, 3, and 5-year cumulative survival rates of patients were 72.2%, 31.5%, 27.7% and 83.2%, 42.8%, 38.2% for the FOLFOX group and FLOT group, respectively. The median overall survival time were 21 months and 34 months for the FOLFOX group and FLOT group, respectively, showing significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=4.473, P<0.05). (3) Analysis of survival factors: results of univariate analysis showed that cases undergoing chemotherapy with the FLOT regimen, cases with tumor as diffuse type of Lauren classification, cases with tumor as mixed type of Lauren classification, cases with tumor differentiated as well differentiation, cases with tumor diameter≥5 cm, cases with CA19-9≥27 U/mL, cases with carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA)≥3.4 μg/L, cases with tumor as T4 stage of T staging, cases with tumor as N2 stage of N staging, cases with tumor as N3 stage of N staging, cases undergoing distal gastrectomy and cases undergoing total gastrectomy were related factors influencing postoperative survival of patients ( hazard ratio=0.659, 1.617, 1.798, 0.672, 1.726, 1.655, 1.942, 2.036, 2.536, 4.085, 1.810, 2.310, 95% confidence interval: 0.444-0.978, 1.024-2.556, 1.105-2.926, 0.457-0.990, 1.159-2.569, 1.006-2.723, 1.295-2.912, 1.190-3.484, 1.409-4.564, 2.491-6.697, 1.020-3.211, 1.261-4.233, P<0.05). Results of multivariate analysis showed that cases undergoing chemotherapy with the FLOT regimen, cases with CEA≥3.4 μg/L, cases with tumor as N2 stage of N staging and cases with tumor as N3 stage of N staging were independent risk factors influencing postoperative survival of patients ( hazard ratio=0.622, 1.732, 2.217, 4.039, 95% confidence interval: 0.418-0.926, 1.124-2.670, 1.200-4.097, 2.448-6.662, P<0.05). (4) Subgroup analysis: results of subgroup analysis showed that of the different subgroups using gender, age, tumor Lauren classification, tumor differentiation degree, tumor location, tumor diameter, tumor markers, tumor T staging, tumor N staging and surgical procedures as subgrouping index, the efficacy difference between the FLOT group and the FOLFOX group was the same (interaction P>0.05). (5) Adverse reactions: the incidence of grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ adverse reactions of leukopenia, anemia, thrombocytopenia, nausea, vomiting and liver and kidney dysfunction were 11.1%(11/99), 2.0%(2/99), 3.0%(3/99), 12.1%(12/99), 4.0%(4/99), 1.0%(1/99) and 34.3%(34/99), 1.0%(1/99), 9.1%(9/99), 24.2%(24/99), 4.0%(4/99), 0 in the FOLFOX group and the FLOT group, respectively. There were significant differences of the incidence of leukopenia and nausea between the two groups ( χ2=15.213, 4.889, P<0.05). There was no significant difference of the incidence of thrombocytopenia between the two groups ( χ2=3.194, P>0.05) and there was no significant difference of the incidence of anemia, vomiting and liver and kidney dysfunction between the two groups ( P>0.05). There was no patient in the two group withdrawal from chemotherapy as no tolerance to toxic reactions. All patients were treated with glucocorticoids, proton pump inhibitors and serotonin receptor antagonists during chemotherapy. Patients undergoing leukopenia were treated with granulocyte stimulating factor. Conclusions:Compared with FOLFOX regimen, FLOT regimen which adds docetaxel significantly prolongs the postoperative median overall survival time of patients with advanced gastric cancer. However, FLOT regimen increases the incidence of grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ adverse reactions of leukopenia and nausea.

Objective:To inhibit the Itch gene expression of T-lymphocytes and investigate the immune activity of T lymphocytes using ultrasound-targeted microbubble destruction (UTMD).Methods:T lymphocytes were separated by magnetic bead, and to establish an Itch gene targeted short hairpin RNA (shRNA) plasmid. There were three groups in this study: ①experimental group, Itch-shRNA plasmid-SonoVue microbubbles combined with ultrasound irradiation; ②control group, negative control shRNA plasmid-SonoVue microbubbles combined with ultrasound irradiation; ③blank group, untreated. Forty-eight hours after UTMD transfection, transfection efficiency was detected and analyzed by fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry, the expression of Itch protein was measured with Western blotting.Seventy-two hours after UTMD transfection, the secretion of interleukin 2 (IL-2) and interferon γ (IFN-γ) in the cell supernatant were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). One-way ANOVA was used to compare the differences between groups, and LSD- t test was used to compare the differences between groups. Results:The UTMD mediated shRNA transfection rate was 52.3%, and the relative expression levels of Itch protein in the experimental group, control group and blank group were 0.301±0.080, 0.773±0.101 and 0.719±0.090, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant( F=24.441, P<0.01). The Itch gene expression can be effectively suppressed in the experimental group. Seventy-two hours after transfection, the concentrations of IL-2 in the experimental group, control group and blank group were (417.3±37.1)ng/L, (158.7±17.3)ng/L and (147.0±10.2)ng/L, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant( F=118.701, P<0.001) and the concentrations of IFN-γ were (168.3±12.1)ng/L, (74.3±3.7)ng/L and (74.6±7.1)ng/L, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( F=126.833, P<0.001). The expression levels of IL-2 and IFN-γ in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group and the blank group. Conclusions:UTMD mediated shRNA transfection can significantly decrease the expression of Itch and promote immune activity of T lymphocyte.

Objective:To explore the characteristics and advantages of Whole-Mounting immnunofluorescent staining and laser speckle flow imaging technology in the vascular imaging of mouse ear extended flap.Methods:In this study, total of 25 ICR mice were included.Ten ICR mice were cut off the middle and lateral angiosome to establish an extended flap model, and 3 days later, the changes in the blood supply of the ear flap were observed. The ear area , tissue layer thickness and blood vessel distribution in the healthy side were observed at the same time.Obtain the mouse ears 3 days after modeling, and dissect them into three layers, i.e, the anterior skin layer , the cartilage layer and the posterior skin layer. The distribution and morphology of blood vessels, nerves and monocytes/macrophages in the anterior skin layer were stained and detected by the whole-mount immunofluorescence staining.Ten mice were adopted and an incision was made through the ear horizontally above the bifurcation of the middle angiosome of the mouse ear to establish a delayed extended flap model. Then the blood flow changes in the mouse ear were observed by laser speckle flow imaging andt he blood perfusion values were recorded immediately, 1 d, 2 d, 3 d and 4 d after the operation, respectively.Results:The area of the mouse ear was about 1.3 cm 2 , the thickness was about (0.16±0.04) mm, and the blood was supplied by three vascular bundles: the lateral caudal vascular bundle, the middle vascular bundle and the medial cephalic vascular bundle. The thickness of the anterior and posterior skin and cartilage of the mouse ears were (88±5)μm, (41±3)μm and (29±2)μm, respectively. The whole-mount immunofluorescence staining results clearly showed that the diameter of small vessels in the choke area was (50 ± 6) μm on the third day after modeling. It could be seen that the nerve and artery in mouse ear were in concomitant relationship and the nerve segment attached to the surface of the artery without obvious accompany or clinging to the vein. There were a large number of monocyte macrophages distributed in clusters in the dilated and curved arteries, but they were only scattered outside the artery. Laser speckle flow imaging results showed that there were (6 ± 2) transverse vessels in each auricular flap, and the diameter and blood flow increased significantly in the delayed extended earflap model. Immediately after the operation and at 1d, 2d, 3d, and 4d, the average blood perfusion values of transverse vessels were (92±11) PU, (136±26) PU, (147±27) PU and (176±27) PU, respectively. Conclusions:The Whole-Mounting immnunofluorescent staining and the laser speckle blood flow imaging technology can be used to well observe the blood vessels, nerves, mononuclear macrophages and blood flow perfusion of the mouse extended flap, which can play an important role in the study of blood supply of mouse extended flap.

Objective: To detect norovirus (NoV) GⅠ.1- and GⅡ.4-specific IgG, IgA and histo-blood group antigen (HBGA)-blocking antibodies in healthy populations of all age groups in China for better understanding the epidemiological features of norovirus in China from a serological point of view and providing basic data for vaccine development and clinical trial design. Methods: Indirect ELISA and HBGA-blocking assay were used to detect NoV-specific IgG, IgA and HBGA-blocking antibodies in serum samples collected from healthy natural populations (n=839, aged from six months to 88 years old) in Guangzhou, Fuyang and Yantai. The results were statistically analyzed. Results: The total positive rates of NoV GⅠ.1- and GⅡ.4-specific IgG antibodies were 91.9% and 93.0%. The positive rates of GⅠ.1- and GⅡ.4-specific IgA antibodies were 48.6% and 75.6%, and the titers of HBGA-blocking antibodies to GⅠ.1 and GⅡ.4 norovirus were 5.04 (95%CI: 4.63-5.49) and 18.15 (95%CI: 16.11-20.44). The positive rates of IgG and IgA antibodies generally showed an increasing trend with age. The positive rates of GⅠ.1- and GⅡ.4-specific IgG antibodies ranged from 79.2% to 100.0% and 76.7% to 100.0% in different age groups. They were 81.7% and 85.0% in the age group of 0.5-<1 year, 79.2% and 76.7% in the age group of 1-<2 years, and 98.1% and 96.3% in the age group of 12-<18 years, and maintained at 96% and 98% in the older age groups. The positive rates of GⅠ.1-specific IgA antibody ranged from 11.7% to 93.8% in different age groups and rapidly increased with age. It was 11.7% in the age group of 0.5-<1 year, and reached 93.3% in people aged 45-<60 years and 93.8% in people aged ≥60 years. The positive rates of GⅡ.4-specific IgA antibody ranged from 50.8% to 88.8% in different age groups with 50.8% in people aged 0.5-<1 year, and 86.7%-90.7% in people aged 12-<18 years and older. The titer of GⅠ.1 HBGA-blocking antibody generally increased with age. The antibody titer in populations aged 0.5-<12 years old was lower than that in those aged 18 years and above (GMT: 2.98-4.07 vs 8.21-11.62, P<0.001), and the titer in people of 12-<18 years old was lower than that in those of 45 years old and above (GMT: 5.21 vs 11.03-11.62, P<0.05). No obvious change with age was observed in the titer of GⅡ.4 HBGA-blocking antibody excepting the significant difference between populations of 2-<5 and 22-<45 years old (GMT: 26.73 vs 11.87, P<0.01). Conclusions This study revealed the characteristics of serum NoV GⅠ.1- and GⅡ.4-specific IgG, IgA and HBGA blocking antibodies in populations of different age groups in central and eastern China through analyzing their positive rates and titers and provided preliminary seroepidemiological data for the development of NoV vaccines in China.
